The Saturday Surgery

It’s like last week never happened. Up until Man City woke us up from a weekend long slumber it seemed like it almost never did.

Unlimited transfers. Unlimited options abound. Unlimited panic with just limited time remaining. Three rooms, not four, available to offer Fantasy Managers our best thoughts as they search for divine inspiration in these final minutes.

The chatroom is available for people to confab on their last minute decisions before the ever approach deadline looms.

I’ll be with you, on the front-lines, wondering exactly what to do, as I’ve got full funds leaving me stuck between my very own rock (Wayne Rooney) and hard place (Darren Bent) for a final striking spot in my squad.

        but young might get more assists from free kicks and corners, and from just his general play. nani will get more goals over the season but as he showed last weekend if he's not on form he'll miss a handfull of chances

    Hi guys, been away most of this week so haven't really had a chance to think about changes, does this team look good?

    Given (Ruddy)

    Baines A.Cole Kompany (R.Taylor, Orr)

    Sinclair, Moses, Cahill, Sessegnon (Taarabt)

    Bent (c), Torres (vc), Saha

    I'd like to play Taarabt in all fairness as I can see QPR bouncing back.

    I could do A.Cole -> Bosingwa and therefore Saha -> Suarez, thoughts would be appreciated.

      Hey Bazza, not sure about N'Zogbia's form at the minute. If I had to move someone maybe him.
      I'd play moses today also. played well last week, though he didn't score and got no bonus. But swansea away may be a good fixture for him as it might be a more open game, though swansea are a wounded animal after last monday night!
